Numerous red flare-like objects were seen over Utah last week. Authorities in Utah and those working for the U.N. Panel on Extraterrestrials have confirmed that the “flare-like” objects were in fact pods dropped by alien spacecrafts.

There were over 5,000 reports of the Utah UFOs.

The UFOs in Utah were spotted on the same night that there were multiple sightings of a single UFO above the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, Israel.

Several residents in American Fork and Highland spotted three red lights hovering low in the sky, intermittently dropping what looked to be white lights which then disappeared.

“Those white lights are pods carrying between 5 and 10 aliens from Planet Zeeba,” said John Malley of the SETI Institute. (SETI is an acronym for Search For Extraterrestrial Intelligence.)

The sightings were of three red objects flying slowly and silently in formation. They all released the white “pods” simultaneously and then disappeared.

“They looked like they were flying in formation perfectly together and then whatever was dropped looked like it was burning real bright,” witness Mike Galbraith, an Air Force pilot said.

“The trails of white lights falling from the objects were definitely not military flares. “They usually shoot out the sides, or they shoot down, and there are a lot of them and you could definitely hear them.” Galbraith said the UFOs were silent.

Similar “alien droppings” were seen in New York (Long Island) on New Year’s Eve.

“My friends and I saw these exact red lights over my house on New Year’s,” Chuck Manigold told WWN. “The 3 were moving in a line and moving very fast, very low, and made no noise. They all followed the exact same trajectory and they all dropped something bright and white.”

Local airports and military installations have offered no explanation for the lights and official government authorities have declared the sightings a “hoax.”

“There is an ongoing cover-up by governments around the world to protect citizens from the truth,” Malley said. “Aliens are invading our planet and will be doing so until 2015. We have to address this issue. I think its the greatest challenge to the human race. We must take action now.”

A father and son in American Fork filmed the phenomenon, capturing close-up footage of the UFOs dropping “sparkler-type things” for several minutes.
